Notes:
Attach as many copies of the second part of the cover page as are needed,
one reporting person per page.
Filing persons may, in order to avoid unnecessary duplication, answer items
on the schedules (Schedule 13D, 13G or 14D-1) by appropriate cross
references to an item or items on the cover page(s). This approach may only
be used where the cover page item or items provide all the disclosure
required by the schedule item. Moreover, such a use of a cover page item
will result in the item becoming a part of the schedule and accordingly
being considered as "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities
Exchange Act or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section of the
Act.
Reporting persons may comply with their cover page filing requirements by
filing either completed copies of the blank forms available from the
Commission, printed or typed facsimiles, or computer printed facsimiles,
provided the documents filed have identical formats to the forms prescribed
in the Commission's regulations and meet existing Securities Exchange Act
rules as to such matters as clarity and size (Securities Exchange Act Rule
12d-12).
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLYING WITH SCHEDULE 13D

<PAGE>
Under Sections 13(d) and 23 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the
rules and regulations thereunder, the Commission is authorized to solicit the
information required to be supplied by this schedule by certain security holders
of certain issuers.
Disclosure of the information specified in this schedule is mandatory,
except for I.R.S. identification numbers, disclosure of which is voluntary. The
information will be used for the primary purpose of determining and disclosing
the holdings of certain beneficial owners of certain equity securities. This
statement will be made a matter of public record. Therefore, any information
given will be available for inspection by any member of the public.
Because of the public nature of the information, the Commission can utilize
it for a variety of purposes, including referral to other governmental
authorities or securities self-regulatory organizations for investigatory
purposes or in connection with litigation involving the Federal securities laws
or other civil, criminal or regulatory statues or provisions. I.R.S.
identification numbers, if furnished, will assist the commission in identifying
security holders and, therefore, in promptly processing statements of beneficial
ownership of securities.
Failure to disclose the information requested by this schedule, except for
I.R.S. identification numbers, may result in civil or criminal action against
the persons involved for violation of the Federal securities laws and rules
promulgated thereunder.
